Hi there, we live in Hopetoun near esperance 6 hours south of perth. My husband had his operation last July the size of a closed fist, how he even worked has amazed me, but he was never to return back to work, what they cut out was his short turn memerory, his problem solveing, and his abilitie to show emotions, he had the 6 week of radiation treatment & chemo, then an mri in dec, seemed to be ok, then continued on chemo tablets every month triple dose, then another mri in feb showed us 4 tumors, and that was that, no further treatment just sent us home with maybe 4 - 6 months, we are doing ok, went to Qld to see all our family and have a holiday in cairns, nearly made it home, he had a minor stroke which cause a major seizure, they pumped in the steriods and after 4 days we could come home, that was 2 weeks ago, he has bounced back ok, but we have him on a slow release morphine patch, as he says he is not in pain, but his face has relaxed so much, when you look at him you wouldn't know he is sick, but sometimes that is the problem, gives you that false sense of hope, but I have found out by reading these bloggs, that every case is different, and I think it is great that some people have good results, but our doctor said to us that was it, so how can you have hope. Gary had his operation at Sir Charles gardiner Hospital. Stay positive and be strong, and don't worry if people don't come around, and they won't, it is all about the two of you, Hope things are good, take care.
